This article introduces Corpus PalaeoHibernicum (CorPH), a corpus currently consisting of 78 texts in Early Irish (c. 7th–10th cent.) created by the ERC-funded Chronologicon Hibernicum (ChronHib) project by bringing together pre-existing lexical and syntactic databases and adding further crucial texts from the period. In addition to being annotated for POS, morphological and syntactic information, another layer of annotation has been developed for CorPH – ‘Variation Tagging’, i.e. a tagset that numerically encodes synchronic language variation during the Early Irish period, thus allowing for much improved research on the chronological variation among the material. Another new pillar of studying linguistic variation is Bayesian Language Variation Analysis (BLaVA), in order to address the challenge that “not-so-big data” poses to statistical corpus methods. Instead of reflecting feature frequencies, BLaVA models language variation as probabilities of variation.

“…The salience of digital and corpus-based approaches to ancient languages has increased in recent years (e.g. Adamik, 2016;Eckhoff et al, 2018;Mambrini et al, 2020;Qiu et al, 2018), and these methods have proven their effectiveness even in relatively poorly attested languages. It goes without saying that a digital dataset is more easily and more efficiently queried than a written corpus, facilitating research results that would otherwise be difficult or impossible to achieve.…”

The Corpus of the Epigraphy of the Italian Peninsula in the 1st Millennium BCE (CEIPoM) is a linguistic database which covers the Oscan, Umbrian, Old Sabellic, Messapic and Venetic languages, as well as epigraphic Latin up to 100 BCE. The database is hosted on GitHub and Zenodo, and provides manually annotated linguistic information on all levels of language structure, ranging from phonology to syntax. In providing a high-resolution digital dataset for language varieties that have until now been largely restricted to printed reference works, this corpus opens up new avenues for research into this unique ancient linguistic area.

“…ChronHib aims at advancing the methods used for linguistic dating of Early Irish by contributing to a chronologically more precise description of linguistic variations and by employing corpus linguistic and advanced statistical methods. It also endeavours to improve, by means of digital humanities techniques, on the availability and reliability of the material basis relevant to the chronology of linguistic developments and of the literature of early medieval Ireland (see Qiu et al 2018 for a more in-depth discussion of ChronHib).…”
